HCG Diet After the Holiday Season: Why Not?

The holiday season is over and you are left with tons of questions on how to get back in shape after all those holiday parties and foods. Many HCG dieters embark on dieting after the holiday season is over. In fact, they make their HCG diet plan as part of their new year’s resolution. However, if you are truly dedicated, why wait until the holiday is over? You can start right before the holiday so you can welcome the holiday in a much smaller size which is a beautiful thing to celebrate.

Weight Loss after the Holiday Proves Dedication

Losing weight with HCG diet after the holiday needs real dedication. Shedding those unwanted pounds on such a crucial time only means that you are serious about leading a healthier life. It is also a way for you to reaffirm your dedication and that you wanted to prove to yourself that you have that will-power and self-control in losing weight at any time of the year.

Overcoming Plateaus after the Holiday

A weight loss plateau during the holiday is a common thing for all HCG dieters. Even if you stumble and hit a weight loss plateau after holiday parties and foods do not be despair. There are certainly ways to break a plateau. Embark on the HCG diet right away and don’t wait for another day. If you took shorter than a 10-days break, resume with your diet right away. However, if you took more than 10 days, you need to reload back for 3 days before you start having your shot of the hormone and eating only 500 calories every day.

You can try this plan below:

Start Phase one of the HCG Diet on November.  It’s all about planning.  Start reloading on a food-based holiday like the Thanksgiving. During this phase, you can enjoy the festival indulging over high-fat foods. It’s good to start your diet off. After the 3 loading days, you can transition into the second phase of the HCG Diet. Here, you’ll spend about 4 weeks losing weight just in time for the New Year’s Eve. By the end of December, you have already lost a considerable amount of weight and you will look fabulous in your holiday outfit for the Christmas.

 

7 Diet Secrets for Phase 3 of the HCG Diet

Stabilizing during phase 3 of the HCG Diet is one of the biggest challenges every dieter experience. But some few diets strategy can make all the difference from stabilizing to being successful on the weight loss journey.

Below are top 7 diet secrets for Phase 3 of the HCG Diet.

1. Eat normal calories again

During the stabilization phase, you do not have to continue dieting again as many dieters do. Do not assume that you will gain weight right away when you start reintroducing more calories back into your diet. One secret in transitioning into the next phase successfully is not to continue restricting your calorie intake. Increase your calories to a normal amount:

For women: 1700 to 2000 calories a day

For men: 27000 to 3000 calories a day

Your body needs to create a new set point of eating a variety of healthy oils and proteins, a moderate amount of fruits and non-starchy vegetables.

2. Use the Glycemic index

To help you choose the appropriate foods for this phase use the Glycemic index. Foods that are less than 30 in the Glycemic index scale and foods that are rich in protein and fibers can balance your blood sugar. Foods that are low in Glycemic index scale can help you maintain your weight loss during phase 3.

3. Read food labels before buying and consuming them

By reading the food labels you can avoid sugars and starches during P3 of the HCG Diet. This will also prevent you from going above the two-pound range. Stay away from foods with dextrose, maltose, glucose, fructose and anything with “ose”. When you read the food label, you can also prevent unhealthy additives such as artificial sweeteners like aspartame, sucrose and monosodium glutamate or MSG.

4. Weigh yourself every day

Even though you have passed the very low calorie phase of the HCG Diet you still have to continue weighing yourself. Do this religiously. The first two weeks of this phase can pretty give you a swing on your diet. It is very vital therefore to document your weight and make it sure that you stay within the 2-pound range.

5. Eat clean

Eat clean and healthy during phase 3 of the HCG Diet. Choose foods that will give you more energy and foods that will nourish your body. Do away with your unhealthy eating lifestyle and make a big change by eating clean and healthily. Go for more proteins, vegetables and approved phase 3 fruits.

6. Take extra time between rounds

You can do multiple rounds to achieve your goal weight but you have to take some time before proceeding to the next round. Longer breaks between each round will help prevent your body from developing immunity. Longer breaks will also help your body to recharge, rest and to practice healthier eating habits. Breaks between each round:

Round 1 to Round 2: 6 weeks

Round 2 to Round 3: 8 weeks

Round 3 to Round 4: 10 weeks

Round 4 to Round 5: 12 weeks

For every succeeding round, two weeks is added. Skipping the long break and starting right away with your next round can only make you develop immunity and gain weight.

7. Eat varieties of foods

During phase 3 of the HCG Diet, you can have varieties of foods. Start eating more protein, vegetables and fruit choices but avoid starch and sugars. Your body needs additional nutrition after restricting yourself with only limited choices of foods.

 

Difficulties during Phase 3 of the HCG Diet

Phase 3 of the HCG Diet is the very time for you to start introducing back varieties of foods into your diet. However, you don’t want to do everything so fast. You must take things slow; a step at a time or else you might encounter some difficulties causing you to gain weight as you go through your next phase. Here are some top difficulties dieters might encounter as they go through the maintenance phase.

Feeling Full

You might struggle to consume the 700 calories during your first few days with phase 3 of the HCG Diet because your body is used with only consuming 500 calories a day. Eating the whole 700 calories will make you feel bloated and stuffed. But then remember this is perfectly normal. What you can do is to consume the required amount of calories so you can continue to successfully follow the HCG Diet protocol.

Over Consuming and Overwhelming

Some dieters find Phase 3 of the HCG Diet very overwhelming that they wanted to consume as many varieties of foods as they can and they want to do it quickly. However, this practice won’t do any good to your body. They are practically gorging! Gorging during this phase will only cause your weight to increase rapidly. Everything that you have worked hard during the previous phases will practically be forfeited. My advice- abstains from such a lifestyle alteration. Don’t let yourself get off and on the HCG Diet train just because you screw up. When you screw up once don’t do it again. What to do if you’ll gain weight? You can consider doing the steak day.

Carb Additions

When doing this phase, be extremely cautious with your carbs choices like bread, potatoes, pastries and rice. One slip with your carb can cause a dramatic change in your weight. Carbs are addictive. Once you start introducing them back into your body, you will crave for even more.

What to do to pass through Phase 3 of the HCG Diet without difficulty?

  • Do not eat any starches and sugars during Phase 3.
  • Pay attention to calories
  • Introduce all foods gradually
  • Cut-out whatever food is causing you to gain weight.
  • Introduce only a tiny bit of fats, dairy and nuts.
  • Keep your weight always within the two-pound range after your last day weight.

Phase 3 of the HCG Diet is the final leg of your diet journey. Just stay focus and you will take control of your weight.

 

Getting Back on Track after a Holiday

Diet slips are a normal part of any lifestyle change. Diet slips won’t really hurt your progress over what you have been working out for so long but how you react to the diet slip can. How you negatively react with the slip can leave you feeling down and discouraged.

Not only non-dieters face diet slip. Even successful HCG dieters face weight gain, especially over the holiday season. But with renewed dedication, you can stop the scale from creeping further and get back.

Tips to help you get back on track with the HCG Diet:

  1. Don’t let holiday overeating extend one day longer. Get back on track right after the holiday. If you only took less than 10 days off the HCG diet, you can get back on the HCG diet without reloading. However, if you took more than 2 weeks off the diet, you have to reload. Getting back right away on track will limit your weight gain.
  2. Eat smarter instead of committing yourself to a very strict diet. Start with resolving to eat less and NO fast food. Make a smart substitution by substituting your sugary intake with nutritious low-calorie alternatives like fruits and veggies. Completely cut-out your soda intake and substitute it with tea or lemonade. Sodas are a major source of empty calories.
  3. Renew your commitment to healthy eating and weight loss by increasing your exercise time while you are decreasing your calorie intake. If you live in an area with a mild winter, biking to work is a good way to help you lose some of those weights. Instead of using the elevators, use the stair. Walking is a great way to lose weight. Walking can make a huge difference when it comes to maintaining a healthy weight and overall heart health.
  4. Carefully plan every meal. Up your protein by eating more lean meats. Proteins prolong the feeling of fullness than carbohydrates or fats. Stick to low-fat protein like low-fat yogurt or cottage cheese. Emphasize fruits and vegetables. Fruits can increase the amount of fiber in your diet. Fruits will clean your body of those simple carbohydrates and heavy fats.
  5. Zero in your food triggers. Eating some of your trigger food at one meal will not do great damage but taking them home to eat for days could.

Review your diet success before the holidays. Return to your healthy eating habits without hesitations.

 

Foods to Avoid During Phase 3 of the HCG Diet and Some Tips

Phase 3 of the HCG Diet is the most critical and difficult part of the diet.  As you finished with the 500 calorie diet a day you begin to add food back into your diet. However, this is where most dieters slip up. This is where dieters revert back their old unhealthy eating habits. So, if you have successfully made it with the Phase 2 without any cheating, you also need to be very vigilant about how much you eat and what you eat during this phase just like during the very low calorie phase.

Below are some tips and foods to avoid during Phase 3 of the HCG Diet.

  1. DO stick with the Phase 2 foods if you are not sure what to eat during Phase 3. Slowly increase your portion size and your daily calorie intake.

DO NOT add a large amount of foods back into your diet right away.

  • DO take account of what you eat every day and DO document your daily weight. This will help you determine what foods to eliminate that cause you to gain weight.
  • DO make a list of all the foods that you know won’t make you gain weight. You already have a great starting point because of the list of P2 foods that you can build from. We have a great list of HCG Diet approved Phase 3 foods here. But remember, every person’s metabolism differs. There are a lot of natural foods out there that you may be able to eat without even gaining any weight.
  • Protein is the key for Phase 3 of the HCG Diet. DO eat as many high-proteins as you can. DO NOT consume foods that are high in sugar and carbohydrates. Do stay away too from processed foods. It will help you in your long-term weight loss and overall health.
  • DO make sure that you get enough fibers on your diet. As much as possible, consume at least 30 grams of fiber-rich foods every day.
  • DO NOT consume foods labeled as “low-fat” or “fat-free”. They are likely to have more carbs and sugar in them.
  • DO NOT freak out if you make mistakes. If you have gained more than 2 pounds you have the steak day to help you get back on track.
  • DO start to add some exercise to your daily routine. However, DO NOT make rigorous exercise. Start with light walking then slowly start to increase.
  • To help you maintain your weight loss easier, DO drink hot lemonade in the morning.
  •  Good snacks in the morning are grilled chicken strips, hard-boiled egg and protein shakes and bars.
